You’ll have to excuse me. Because I don’t watch VH1, I had never heard of “Ton of Cash” or contestant Jonny Sarhanis, who apparently calls himself “the Greek Mystique.” Sarhanis apparently does something called “the Animal,” which involves braying and beating his chest like some kind of Australopithecine cross-bred with something dumber.
When host Dhani Jones (good to see him working!) tells Sarhanis that he has to leave the show, the Greek Mystique attempts to give the motivational speech from Rocky Balboa, then he gives up and does the Animal until he falls onto his back from exhaustion — or possibly from depriving his brain of oxygen. It must be seen to be believed (and subsequently mocked).
